Good start, but then it gets ruined

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

The. Best. TV. Detective show/short drama. Ever. Stunning script. Flawless, moving acting, beautiful cinematography. Humour and heartbreak. Exceptional. Nothing else comes close. Watch it. Then watch it again

I really enjoyed the one season of this show. Complex, entertaining characters form the foundation for a unique show. It is a shame that they only had one season because it is better than most things on TV.

As per reviews below by Joe & Judy..... A GREAT BIG DITTO to both!
Everyone involved in the making of "River" are to be congratulated on the perfection of this miniseries. It engrossed me and I paid full attention to every detail and nuance, which is most unusual! With a lot of the tripe churned out these days, especially from America, I switch off and also never go to the cinema anymore. English dramas are so far ahead of the world, in every aspect and "River" sits proudly on top of the pile for me.
A BIG Thank you to all involved XXX

This mini-series actually consists of two interwoven story-lines: that of the detective storyline and that of the main character's mental disorder. It is therefore not your average thriller / detective; instead it has depth and is sometimes even philosophical. How Stefan plays the main character is simply outstanding - only in very few other movies / series will you see an actor performing so well. In addition, all of the other actors - none of whom are the traditional "Hollywood stars" - are similarly way above average. Finally, and you may not notice this straightaway, the series is well put together, something which for this series will have been a true challenge.It is really highly recommendable to watch. Do not expect something "light / easy"; it will grasp you and the last episode is quite moving.
